In Stochastic Dynamics of Structures, Li and Chen present a unified view
of the theory and techniques for stochastic dynamics analysis,
prediction of reliability, and system control of structures within the
innovative theoretical framework of physical stochastic systems. The
authors outline the fundamental concepts of random variables, stochastic
process and random field, and orthogonal expansion of random functions.
Readers will gain insight into core concepts such as stochastic process
models for typical dynamic excitations of structures, stochastic finite
element, and random vibration analysis. Li and Chen also cover advanced
topics, including the theory of and elaborate numerical methods for
probability density evolution analysis of stochastic dynamical systems,
reliability-based design, and performance control of structures.
Stochastic Dynamics of Structures presents techniques for researchers
and graduate students in a wide variety of engineering fields: civil
engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace and aeronautics, marine
and offshore engineering, ship engineering, and applied mechanics.
Practicing engineers will benefit from the concise review of random
vibration theory and the new methods introduced in the later chapters.
"The book is a valuable contribution to the continuing development of
the field of stochastic structural dynamics, including the recent
discoveries and developments by the authors of the probability density
evolution method (PDEM) and its applications to the assessment of the
dynamic reliability and control of complex structures through the
equivalent extreme-value distribution."

"The authors have made a concerted effort to present a responsible and
even holistic account of modern stochastic dynamics. Beyond the
traditional concepts, they also discuss theoretical tools of recent
currency such as the Karhunen-Loeve expansion, evolutionary power
spectra, etc. The theoretical developments are properly supplemented by
examples from earthquake, wind, and ocean engineering. The book is
integrated by also comprising several useful appendices, and an
exhaustive list of references; it will be an indispensable tool for
students, researchers, and practitioners endeavoring in its thematic
field."
